One pen to rule them all...

The unique bolt action shape allows for one fluid motion to advance or retract the refill. Because the surfaces of both the interior part and the inside surface have been carefully machined to be extra smooth, the action feels amazingly satisfying. If there's one pen that we recommend to new customers, it's the Bolt Action.

Made from the finest materials

And there are four options to choose from: titanium, copper, bronze, and zirconium. We picked those four because they're popular, fun to machine, and can withstand a lifetime of use.

TITANIUM

Tough, lightweight, extremely corrosion resistant, and the best-selling material we work with. If this is your first Tactile Turn product, we recommend starting with titanium.

COPPER

One of the few metallic elements with a natural color other than gray or silver. Naturally antimicrobial, copper will patina and darken with time and use.

BRONZE

Consisting mostly of copper, tin, and other metals like aluminum, manganese, nickel, or zinc. Bronze machines beautifully and looks great when highly polished or with some patina.

ZIRCONIUM

Directly below titanium on the periodic table with similar corrosion resistance. Zirconium is difficult to machine and one of the most expensive materials we work with but lustrous, dark grey color looks amazing.

Designed to last forever

Everything we sell comes with a Lifetime Warranty because we believe tools should be carried, used, and trusted to last. If something unexpected goes wrong, let us know and we'll make it right.

    Love it!

    Bought one about six months ago based on quality of the other reviews. I've really enjoyed it and been using it daily. The mechanism works great, the weight is very comfortable, and the finish feels great in the hand.

    Highly recommended.

    My Favorite Writing Tools

    I am not sure how long I have been buying this pen, but I give one to every important client (plus friends and family members). The pen is a very special writing tool. I give it to people who I know appreciate a look of simplicity, while enjoying excellent craftsmanship. I was recently surprised when a senior executive gave me one as a farewell gift before he took a new assignment. What a nice full-circle moment for me. I highly recommend this product.
